The Chemical Resistant Properties of PTFE Ring Gaskets
PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene), is a synthetic fluoropolymer and the most chemically resistant plastic known. It is able to handle a wide range of applications and conforms to both AMS and FDA specifications, making it suitable for aerospace, medical, and food production industries. The ga...Read more -
Debunks the PTFE Pan/PFOA
A coating of polymer or polytetrafluoroethylene on cookware produces a nonstick surface. Available for more than 60 years, polymer helps prevent eggs and pancakes from sticking in a skillet. Unfortunately, the polymer coating chips off when scratched by rough-edged kitchen utensils or abrasive sc...Read more -
Convoluted Low-Profile PTFE Lined Hose
Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) is an engineered fluoropolymer. Oustanding resistance to chemicals is one of its primary attributes. A broad temperature range of -100°F to 500°F (-73°C to 260°C) make this hose material suitable for the majority of fluid and ambient temperature conditions found in ...Read more -
Cleaning Machined PTFE Parts
Q.I was hoping to get your thoughts or a bit of advice on how to create and implement cleanliness specifications/processes for machined (PTFE) plastic parts. Cutting fluid for the machining center is basically a water soluble vegetable oil-based fluid. The use of this plastic manifold and cover i...Read more -
Characteristics and applications of PTFE plate
There are two types of PTFE plates: molding and skiving/turning. The molding plate is made of polytetrafluoroethylene resin by molding at room temperature, and then sintered and cooled. The turning plate is made of PTFE resin by pressing, sintering, and peeling. There are two types of PTFE p...Read more -
